Best year-round climate! It has four seasons: long spring and summer, long fall and short winters. Wonderful place for retirees. Small cozy city; you can go anywhere you need to go in the city under 15 minutes. Many modern medical facilities. Low taxes, low housing prices. Lots of churches...all well-attended. Community theater and a community college and many wonderful small-town spirited activities.
Big city Dallas/Fort Worth convenient...about an hour away.
More job opportunities than most small towns, but good solid skills are a plus in any small city.
I don't know how other cities in the area fare, but I'd say the water and electric rates are a tad high in Paris. Property taxes seem fair.
